Hi! We are Christy and Edith, backyard gardeners from Colorado. Lately, we have noticed more and more people picking our brains for tips and trouble-shooting about gardening. We think it’s kinda funny, because we’re not experts. We just learned a lot about gardening from the mistakes we made along the way. You always hear about Victory gardens – but what about all the garden failures? Gardening is about learning, experimenting and rolling with the punches. Every week we share our most epic garden failures and our biggest garden lessons. Most gardens are the result of trial and error. To reduce your chance of failure, join us in our gardens. And learn why you should plant your tulips butt side down. Winner of Best New Podcast at 2020 Colorado Podcast Awards!

Meet Christy and Edith. We are unemployed theater people and gardeners, and share our top ten gardening mistakes.
You learn how not to sow carrots, how to plant your seedlings in ways that don’t slowly kill them, and some awful mistakes made using plastic in the garden. Have you unwittingly nurtured a weed, thinking it was a flower? We have. Have you planted something you had no idea was invasive and now have a battle of wits with a plant that will go on for decades? We’re nodding. We’ve done it. From the pain of power raking bindweed to planting tulips upside down to a paralyzing fear of harvesting-you’re not alone.
Join us for some gardening knowledge, some laughs, and our reassuring motto: “If you make a mistake, the garden will forgive you.” And remember, if you want more, check out blog and the amusing and helpful Upside Down Dictionary on our website.
